Difference between two WSIReader

[KumoLiu]

Description
I just find two WSIReader which one is in monai/data/wsireader.py and the other is in monai/data/image_reader.py. I would like to ask if there is any difference between these two files? Because the same name just confuse me. @drbeh Could you please help me figure out?

MONAI/monai/data/image_reader.py

Line 1207 in 31c4209

class WSIReader(ImageReader):

MONAI/monai/data/wsi_reader.py

Line 257 in 31c4209

class WSIReader(BaseWSIReader):

Thanks in advance!

Hi @KumoLiu,

The one in image_reader is going to be deprecated. Please use WSIReader in wsi_reader.py.

Best,
Behrooz

Hi @drbeh ,

So I think we can deprecate it now? Could you please help add the deprecated decorator for it? Maybe in PR #4768?

Thanks.

Hi @Nic-Ma, I will do it in the pending PR that we already have for deprecating pathology components: #4415
